Chapter 305 The People Behind Everything, It Turns Out....
One Year Later
It was like any other day when Eve would walk into the ward of her husband, Allan Watson. Eve never got tired of visiting him every day and it had been one year.
Allan had never regained consciousness after surgery on his leg and skull which turned out to have deep wounds, resulting in trauma.
Allan was in a coma.
Eve still remembers what the doctor who treated Allan said a few days after the surgery, "It is with great regret that we have to inform you that Mr Allan Watson is most likely in a coma and...has paralysis in his right leg. I'm sorry, but we tried...but..."
Eve covered her mouth at that moment and screamed.
"Allannnn!!!"
Eve took a deep breath. If Eve keeps remembering that.
But Eve doesn't care! Eve continued to wait. Eve never got tired of spending most of her day here. Waiting for her husband and telling him about her busy day even though Allan never responded. Eve would return after dropping off or picking up Aleena who had started back to school. After that she would go to the hospital.
Deep down, Eve wished Allan would listen to her. The trauma Allan experienced made him choose to live in his subconscious. No one ever knew, not even the doctor, when Allan would regain consciousness. But Eve is sure, Allan will definitely regain consciousness one day and return to Eve.
That's why Eve, on the doctor's advice, tried to keep communicating with Allan even though Allan was in a coma. In order to help bring Allan's consciousness back to the surface.
Allan's grandfather who happened to come that day, gently stroked Eve's hair, " Allan is lucky to have you Eve! But it hurts my heart to see you like this! We never know...when Allan will regain consciousness or maybe Allan will never regain consciousness! Isn't it time for you to forget this waiting, Eve? And get on with your life again? I know Robert...still loves you very much..."
"Grandpa..." Eve turned her head and was about to reply.
"Listen to me first, I know...you love Allan very much! But it's not easy Eve...you're still young! I'm doing this because I feel bad for you! Especially to Allan! I never believed a word he said! If...if... "He took a deep breath.
"Grandpa...never mind...it's...all in the past!" Eve exclaimed back.
"No! Listen to grandpa first!" Allan's grandfather said again.
"I just found out...it turns out that Catherine, Robert's mum, was the brains of the whole thing all along! But I'm sure Robert isn't like that, Eve, he doesn't know anything! It turns out that Catherine secretly provoked everyone to hate you and act as if it was their own wish! Without her intervening! I didn't think she could go this far! In fact...I love her very much! I never discriminated against her even though she wasn't my biological granddaughter! I love her as much as I love Allan!" The grandfather was silent for a moment. Eve just listened as her grandfather let out his frustration.
"I never thought that my affection for Catherine by not giving her space in the company was not because I didn't love her! It was because I loved her! I just want Catherine to be by my side enjoying life without having to work hard like Allan! After all, whatever Catherine wanted, I fulfilled it! Grandpa never refused anything Catherine wanted! But jealousy made her close her eyes from the love that I gave to her! I didn't realise I was keeping a female snake in my own house!" Grandpa Allan shed tears at the corners of his old eyes. Then he took another breath.
"Catherine also provoked Claire, then Maira and even Jessica! Grandpa never noticed! Maybe it's my fault, I was happy when Allan married you, then you had children, Grandpa's focus was shifted to you two! This made Catherine even more hurt! Did you even know? Catherin was also the one who gave the idea to Jessica when you were in Bali!" He patted his chest.
"Grandpa! That's enough! Have a drink first! Never mind! Forget everything...I don't want you to get sick!" Eve said, carrying Allan's grandfather, the person who always supported her and shared her love with her own grandfather.
The grandfather sat down and drank the water Eve offered him. But that didn't stop him from telling his story.
"No! Let me finish this!"
Finally Eve just shrugged her shoulders in resignation and went back to listening to her grandfather's heart.
"And it turns out, Catherin was also the one who... tried to harm James - Jessica's lover, so that Jessica would focus only on Allan, by using Jessica's assistant, Amanda, who was hurt because it turned out that James seduced her, and they secretly made love behind Jessica's back and James threw Amanda the assistant away and still decided to return to Jessica! Because Amanda is just a lowly person unlike Jessica who is a top model. James felt that he was not worthy of Amanda and left her pregnant! Even though she later miscarried!"
Eve covered her mouth, "Really, Grandpa? This story I don't know! What did Catherine do all that for?"
"Well, because Amanda only turned herself in a few weeks after Dean and Jessica were caught! Where do you think Catherine's cover was blown? It was Amanda! Amanda was the one who revealed it! Amanda admitted that Catherine provoked her and after she lost her baby, Amanda lost her mind and killed James! Catherine did it to make Allan and your life miserable and maybe even harm both of you because of her hurt!" said the grandfather.
Eve glared again. She didn't know! She only knew that Catherine was arrested! But she didn't know the details of the story because her focus was only on Allan's comatose health.
"Catherine was also the one who provoked Dean into defecting to kidnap you so that Allan would show up and then kill him! Because Dean was hurt! It hurt Jessica to admit that the baby she was carrying was Allan's, not hers! Not to harm you! But to harm Allan! How did...Catherine know all that? All out of grandfather's mind! Just because of an inheritance? She wanted Allan to die and Catherine to take control of my entire estate! So I beg you...please forgive Catherine, she has realized her mistake and is currently making amends in prison! And it's because of this guilt that I'm asking you. Can you... give Robert another chance? You know, you've been..." the grandfather said again.
"Grandpa...I..." Eve didn't have time to say everything.
The door to Allan's treatment room was forcibly opened!
BRAK!!!
"Enough Grandpa! Don't make me more embarrassed! Accepting me into your family already makes me happy! Especially...because Mummy...has made such a big mistake to Uncle and Eve, to this family! There's no way I...I'm going to betray Uncle Allan again! Eve, please forgive my mum, Eve, if you can please forgive her!" said Robert remorsefully.
Robert then approached Allan, who had tubes installed everywhere. Robert looked sadly at his uncle, but then he had an idea.
"Grandpa! Eve, I have an idea! Let's hope it works! But please, you have my back this time! Trust me this time!" Robert exclaimed looking at the two.
Both Eve and Alan's grandfather looked at each other and spoke in unison "What idea?"
Robert grinned and spoke, "Just wait and watch!"
Robert then straightened himself up and then took Eve by the hand. Eve was surprised but Robert gave the code.
"Now that I think about it, I want grandpa! I want...I want to marry Eve! Because I think Eve is still very beautiful, and...of course young and sexy! I don't think Aleena would mind if she had a father who is handsome and of course very young compared to my uncle who is sickly and very weak! Isn't that right, Eve?" exclaimed Robert very loudly.
Eve glared as she was about to speak loudly but held back, "What? What the hell are you doing, Robert?"
But Robert gave Eve the code, "Look, your jealous husband, it looks like my plan is working! His eyes are starting to twitch!"
"Huh?" Eve covered her mouth because what Robert said was true, as well as Jordan's grandfather who gave the code for Eve to pretend.
"I-I...whatever you say, if you agree...then I..." Eve's speech was cut off when she heard a soft voice.
"I...don't agree! Take your hands off my wife Robert!"
Those who were there were shocked.
Eve closed her mouth and walked towards her husband and hugged him.
"You..you're back!" Eve shed her tears while kissing his whole face and then kissed his lips gently although it felt stiff and cold.
Robert, who saw this, ran to
the door of Allan's room.
"Doctor! Help...me! My uncle has regained consciousness!"
